MythTV hw question

[Derek Atkins]

I want to be sure that before I go and spend $150-200 on the board (and
even more to get the memory and other stuff that goes with it) that
the machine can actually output the 1080p VGA signal that I want.
There are two issues at hand:

  1) Being able to decode 720p and 1080i MPEG signals
  2) Being able to translate, resize, and deinterlace those HD signals.
  3) Being able to display a 1080p VGA signal, preferably at 120Hz

Some VGA outs can only get up to 1080i and can't get the throughput
of 1080p, especially since I'm asking for nearly 995328000 B/s (unless
I've miscalulated 1920 x 1080 x 4 x 120...
